• Mating pitch: 0.049" (1.25mm)
• Mounting configuration: Surface Mount, Right Angle
• Termination method: Solder
• Fastening type: Push-Pull
• Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 Wall
• Current rating: 1A
• Voltage rating: 150VAC
• Operating temperature range: -35°C ~ 85°C
• Material flammability: UL94 V-0
• RoHS compliance: RoHS Compliant

The DF14A-10P-1.25H(35) meets all substitution criteria as an active product within the same series, maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF14A-10P-1.25H(35) is the direct substitute for the obsolete DF14A-10P-1.25H(24). Both parts maintain identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications. The substitute part is currently in active production status with significantly higher inventory availability, ensuring supply chain continuity.

The contact finish difference (Tin-Copper versus Tin) does not affect functional compatibility, as both finishes meet the same electrical and environmental performance requirements within the specified operating parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF14A-10P-1.25H(35) be used as a direct replacement for DF14A-10P-1.25H(24)?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in electrical specifications, mechanical configuration, pitch, position count, mounting type, and environmental ratings. The substitute is an active product with superior availability.

Q: What is the significance of the different contact finish specifications?

A: The original part specifies Tin-Copper finish while the substitute specifies Tin finish. Both finishes provide equivalent electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance within the operating temperature range of -35°C to 85°C and do not affect connector performance or mating characteristics.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: The original part number does not specify packaging, while the substitute is supplied in Tube packaging. This difference affects logistics and handling but does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both parts are RoHS Compliant, carry UL94 V-0 material flammability rating, and have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special moisture handling requirements during storage or assembly.

Q: Why is the original part obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is determined by the manufacturer. The DF14A-10P-1.25H(35) provides functional equivalence and is the recommended active alternative for new designs and production requirements.
